Good old Amsoil, par for the course.  Add it to the list of people they have left hanging.


I used to live a couple miles from Amsoil's HQ and now live about 90 miles away.  The grandpa/founder was a really cool guy.  Donated a lot of money (the local hockey arena is named after them) to the area and to police especially the K-9 training.  His kids are pompous ***** and everyone who works there seems to be convinced of their own superiority as well.  There are a lot of distributors around here and they will start up the snake oil pitch too if you give them the chance.


I met one of their marketing/pr ladies at a wedding and the discussion turned to Amsoil.  Yeah I am a bit of a smart azz, so after hearing about how great Amsoil was for a while I brought up how they have a reputation for refusing to cover warranty claims.  She flat out told me she could refer me to someone in the company who could "tell me why I am wrong".  Thanks but no thanks and with that type of response I will never buy another one of their products again either.


This has been discussed in the diesel truck forums in great detail...to my knowledge, AO buys their base oil from someone else then adds their secret blend of herbs and spices.  Then they trash the place that sold them their base oil!!


Sorry for continuing to beat the dead horse.  I just cannot stand to hear of this company repeatedly when they flat out lie to sell their product.
